>From the May 2005 Horn Call:
"Wilhelm Lanzky Otto's mouthpiece made by J.K. Gottfried in Copenhagen; he used 
this mouthpiece his entire career. A copy of this mouthpiece is manufactured by 
the F. Holton company as their model XDC (rim altered). (p.31)"
There is a picture with the dimensions listed also. No word on why the Holton 
company changed the rim.
